i use the longchuck in 0.4.

From a pure distance perspective (no leader) have tested it (measured) vs Carp Line and Syncro in same diameter.

Obviously most peoples casting differs but the longchuck gave the longest casts, Syncro 2nd, Carp Line 3rd. But there was less than 10 yards between shortest and longest.

Doesnt sink as well as syncro tho imo

Turning to its casting properties as a distance mono other than those just mentioned in the previous post how do you rate it as the best Distance Mono?
Fox have brought out the Exocet Pro yes its not clear but as a distance line how do they compare ??

Let's see how this tapered longchuck stuff goes.
The 15lb mainline is 0.33 dia, and very low stretch so if long chucking straight through you would need to use the 20lb in 0.40.

The tapered 15 at 0.33 for the mainline part and the shockie section is 30lb 0.47 dia.

I gave it an hours soak in some warm water with some washing up liquid.
When spooling the spool needs to be upright, and the line needs to come towards you off the bottom of the spool.

My reel spool said 300m of 15lb, and the spool of tapered 15 filled it to the brim perfectly.
